  There's a good paper available here

  http://devrsrc1.external.hp.com/STK/Aries.html

  Performance must be taken into account. Some emulated apps will perform
'correctly' but some others will be dramatically slowed down.

  You may want to consider Aries as a smooth transition path from PA to IPF
in your developments more than a definite solution.

  :

  HP-UX 11 on itanium comes with a PA-RISC emulator (called Aires) which

  allows you to run PA-RISC executables on an Itanium HP-UX machine. It

  works very well - much better than we expected!

  However, be aware that you cannot compile PA-RISC programs on an Itanium

  host, so if you are developing code to run on PA-RISC you have to keep a

  PA-RISC machine available. Also some products like Oracle which do

  relinking at install time cannot be installed directly onto an Itanium

  host (however once installed on a PA-RISC host, the software can be copied

  to an Itanium host and runs fine). This only applies to the PA-RISC

  versions of course, the native Itanium versions can be installed no

  problems.

  Subject: [HPADM] PA-RISC Binaries Running on Itanium?

  Folks,

  I have a customer who claims to have taken one of our products compiled
for HP-UX PA-RISC, and run the binaries on his

  HP-UX Itanium.

  Now, I know that the Linux Virtual Machine is a marketing feature for
later releases of HP-UX, but I thought I'd heard something about cross
PA-RISC/Itanium compatibility as well.

  Is this true? Are there versions of HP-UX that run either PA-RISC or
Itanium binaries? And, if so, which versions? And, if not, is it a plan in
HP's future?

  Regards,

  Christian Bryant
